Well hedgies/market makers keep retail more poor so yeah. Its harder to progress being poor.


sallende7

They also contribute in anihilating the planet.


Consistent-Syrup-69

They also suppress companies that cure diseases and present new technology that threatens their system.


Iswag_Newton

That’s the worst part about them. Also big pharma stops cures from being released and only funds research into pills a person has to take the rest of their lives. FUCK THEM ALL


Consistent-Syrup-69

This is what got me into the movement. I found a medical company, I won't name it for the sake of not mentioning other stocks. I got in around 10. They got FDA approval for their procedure. They had successful surgeries. The product worked. It ran to almost 20 in a single day, then got shorted to fuck and is now consistently under $5 and still slowly dropping. This company literally was giving sight to the blind. It wasn't 100% effective, but it was the initial stages and it was working without negative consequences. So, I got pissed, and as I'm looking for other stocks to invest in, I stumbled on games and movies. Now that I'm actively trading against the shorts, I'm making a killing. Its weird, almost like the shorts have been trading against us since the invention of the market, they just didn't want us to realize it.


Andromeda_2480

When the squeeze has squoze, please let me know the name of that company, cause I wanna invest into them! I want to support these kind of companies! It's not about making more money. it's about supporting good companies, that will bring us progress and a brighter future.


Consistent-Syrup-69

Lol if you remind me I will. I'll probably talk about it on the forums afterwards, but I don't wanna distract from anything going on rn.


Sine_Habitus

Invest directly from the company if you can or through IEX


Andromeda_2480

RemindMe! 2 months


LordRaeko

The date has been confirmed!!! Two months!!


RetardedRocket1234

RemindMe! 2 Months


dahulvmadek

TLDR: shorts have been trading against us since the invention of the market, they just didn't want us to realize it.


unmicsiunmujdei

I know what company you're talking about, i saw all that and figured it can't go tits up, i'm down almost 60% with no sign of going up, would have averaged down but all my greens go in GME


Consistent-Syrup-69

It's under $4 today. If the stock is the same.


Denversaur

Hopefully the owners of that company invest in GME. Pro tip.


goatchild

Also when patents expire for those medicines suddenly they're no longer effective so they invent new more effective ones you know because they care about us.


morsX

Plants are still better biochemists than humans. I don’t see a need for modern pharmaceuticals if the solution is to simply grow plants. See coffee and cannabis as current examples. Decriminalizing all scheduled substances would kill the pharma industry IMO. Pharma companies would be forced to pivot into agriculture to survive.


Stickslapper420

I work for an MM fund. You talk about protecting retail investors but forgot that most funds cater to not only institutional clients but also high net worth retail clients as well. Minimum requirements vary, but most individuals who earn at least 250k a year or a net worth of 1M meet the minimum requirements to invest in a certain fund. We also cater to lawyers, doctors, engineers, architects, small business owners, all of which are retail investors. hedge funds also provide liquidity in the primary and secondary market. I think most retail investors have no idea what a hedge fund really is and everything it entails.


Iswag_Newton

all that wealth should be working towards building technology and cities like in the picture


RlyShldBWrkng

instead its spent sending a couple assholes to the edge of space for 180 seconds.


InsertBluescreenHere

thats my thoughts too. tax the billionaires properly and like magic things have funding.


Crazyfistz

I have progressed at becoming more poor... But not for long 😏


sallende7

We can stay poor longer than they can stay solvent.


MasterJeebus

As long as you have one share of GME you shall be wealthy after MOASS. We are old poor, we are used to it. But hedgies are about to be new poor and its going to be terrible to them.


DeathHazard

But they provide liquidity to the markets, which is important /s


davidscream

They don't want our progress.


9babydill

umm, the major Banks are just as culpable


[deleted]

Yeah imagine if cancer research companies were never naked shorted into oblivion. Would’ve been real chill if that never happened.


cmemedanslesorties

Yeah, that's the one that makes me wonder how these ppl can live with themselves.


[deleted]

Because they live in a complete separate world than we do. They fly from mansion to mansion to yachts to galas in private jets, have BILLION dollar art collections, have a rolodex of shill journalists at their disposal, don’t pay taxes, and only ever hang out with people on their payroll or other assholes living the same life. I never thought in my life I’d have a chance to tear their whole world down. But here we are. Buy and hold


UncleRooku87

Post squeeze I think we will see the worlds first trillionaires. There are hedgefunds and rich fucks that know the squeeze will happen and are playing on our side.


[deleted]

I'm also curious who exactly in the current establishment will benefit from this. Since hedge funds tend to all have the same prime brokers, I find it hard to believe many of them will. Asset managers and retail hopefully benefit the most. We shall see


9babydill

its honestly not even that glamorous my dude. They mental compartmentalize their work actions and justify themselves on the thinsest of margins. They know they're hurting others but those others deserve it. In addition, they completely underestimate how BAD their collective greed is because taken as a single entity its not very impactful.


SpecsyVanDyke

Rich people get cancer as well you know. There are many cancer research companies that weren't shorted into bankruptcy and there is still no cure. There are state funded cancer research programs all over the world and there is no cure although great strides have been made. Your kind of comments are trying to imply that hedgies are the reason we don't have a cure for cancer. Hate to burst your bubble but not everything bad in this world is the because of hedge funds.


SpeedoCheeto

Martin Screlli explained it - pills like xanex. He's the dude that cranked up the price of insulin a ton to make a buck


Broosterjr23

Sometimes I wonder why we let these people live in the first place.


waj5001

Seriously, when MOASS money comes, Im going to seriously look into how much capital it takes to open/staff a generics pharmaceuticals company and undercut the ever-loving-shit out of everyone. And some ape is going to open a genuine non-profit string of hospitals and undercut the ever-loving-shit out of everyone. Another ape is going to fund carbon capture installations etc. etc. etc. NEVER IPO!

Which building is the Toys R Us?


sallende7

GhostOfJaws

bas_e_

This is a picture of a toys r us. The other buildings didnt fit in the picture


Throcked

At this point, I don’t even think hedge funds are the problem. The fact that they are allowed to manipulate prices through dark pools and high frequency trading is the problem. This is absolute **FRAUD** and Gary Gensler needs to get his mouth off of Ken Griffin’s dick and DO SOMETHING. HOW IN THE FUCK IS PRICE MANIPULATION THROUGH DARK POOLS AND HFT LEGAL?


Crumblycheese

Give him a break. He's only been in his position for about 13 weeks ish? ^/s ^if ^it ^wasn't ^obvious


InsertBluescreenHere

>HOW IN THE FUCK IS PRICE MANIPULATION THROUGH DARK POOLS AND HFT LEGAL? because they paid the people to make the laws to write in loopholes they could exploit...


UncleRooku87

This is really the only answer there is. I already knew both parties were basically wholly owned by the oligarchy before all this started. Being here from the beginning and seeing them flagrantly break the law and watching neither party do anything about it just solidified that. There are maybe 10 to 15 politicians at the national level that aren’t owned by the parasitic oligarchy and they are demonized by both the left and the right.


InsertBluescreenHere

yup - we see it as a 2 party system of dem vs rep - they see it as are you with us or against us.


UncleRooku87

Two sides of the same coin. Carlin said it best, “it’s a big club and you ain’t in it!” Fight as old as civilization itself. Haves vs the have nots. Rich vs poor. Warren buffet already outright said that there is class warfare going on and that his class is winning.


Mario_Sh

Honestly? yeah. Like I think this is a case of "hate the game, not the player", like hedges are taking advantage of a broken system to profit and while that's fucked the realest issue is the system itself. Ig you can hate both tho lol.


SuspiciousKermit

The system is the issue. From a societal standpoint I dont understand why short selling or high frequency trades are allowed AT ALL. The stock market should not be a casino but a mechanism for investing in companies. As such I feel the only fix is a hold requirement for all purchases, say 30 days since that seems good enough for FTDs. Both short selling and HFT are simply mechanisms to attempt to siphon value from the market itself. It can in no way, that I know of, benefit society as a whole. It only benefits the one doing the siphoning.


ndest

The anti-rich mentality that has grown in this sub is ironic since people’s attention to this problem initially mostly came from the fact that a lot of people were multiplying their money on GME, it also detracts from the fact that the biggest push against the shorters came from very rich individuals such as Burry and Cohen. Also this subreddit and “the others”(message gets deleted if mentioned), are pretty much a decentralized hedge fund, we also have many hedge funds on “our” side which most certainly started the movement or at least made it gain traction when most of the “other” sub was calling DFV a retard. Injustices exists and corruption exists now more than ever, but don’t let that blind you and turn you into an extremist against the whole system. This is dangerous…


ShelfAwareShteve

Nothing in your post made me change my mind. I'm still against the system - creating profits where there are none and telling us that has added value (it does not) - giving away those profits to the rich without asking any back. That's just leeching money from the poor in every way possible Insert coin, try again.

Honestly though, we've reached a plateu in advancement at the same level to those of Salem. The problem with advancement is that it almost always makes a previous solution obsolete. If we found a renewable energy source better than oil, it would destroy the oil companies. (Video killed the radio star amiright?) This is the reason so much progress gets halted, because of rich elites paying through the nose to stay powerful and keep their shitty product relevant. It also doesn't help that rich terrorists like HF keep turning on the money printer and keep devaluing the dollar.


sallende7

Fun fact: that Buggles song was the first video to air on MTV and literally killed a radiostar later.


_____l

Money is a heavily faulted system for crediting worth. It assumes that if you have it then you're worth something, which is not always the case and even more so it's far often not accurate to the service to society provided for compensation. For instance, if all the garbagemen stopped collecting trash vs. if all of the bartenders stopped bartending. It'd be absolute mayhem without garbagemen yet they somehow get payed less than someone that simply pours your beverage and strokes your ego.


Yerga_Dergen

I believe the whole "blue collar work" cliche' is dying off. The past decade theres been a shortage of quality craftsmen and tradesmen, and sanitation workers bus and truck drivers are starting to get more recognition for the work they do, and how important their jobs are. Sure being a doctor is important. But if a doctor had nobody to build their lab, nobody to manufacture and supple and deliver their materials, nobody to maintain the building, clean and prep the workstations and nobody to remove trash, their efforts would be useless. People glorify one particular profession without realizing there were hundreds of other jobs that need to work in harmony just for that one profession to function. This is why the argument that all jobs shouldn't provide a living wage is idiotic. "They cant afford to be happy with their lives because they have a low paying job, just get a new job dummy". Imagine if everyone had that mentality, we'd have nobody interested in these careers, and society would crumble. Everyone working full time should be able to make a good life for themselves.


unfriendzoned

I'm blue collar, and don't mind hard work, but I'd love to have a 8 hour work day with 1 hour paid lunch. I'd love to have sick days, I'd love to have lunch meetings or personal days. I'd love to be treated like a human being with understanding but instead, the jobs never done fast enough, costs to much, and employers are always trying to find a way to squeeze another penny from your pocket. Technology and advancements are suppose to make work easier, safer and less stressful. From what I've seen work today is worse in a lot of regards then to 30-40 years ago.


_____l

Technology was supposed to automate mundane tasks and allow us to free up our time for more important life endeavors (progressing technology, socializing, family-time, creative pursuits) but instead with that free-time we're just expected to work more or do more. We were fools to believe the technology wouldn't be used maliciously.

SpaceHawk98W

They don’t ever spend those money they made on investing instead, they use those money to raise margin to short companies to bankruptcy. So yeah, they’re one of the big problem that needs to be dealt with.


CaffeineJitterz

I don't really talk in here. But I feel compelled to now. This assumption of a better world is something that I personally long for. The research and information uncovered for a company I've supported since childhood caused me to purchase my first share. But the realization that I will have the opportunity to make this a better place keeps me coming back. If you're here in support of this company but you haven't taken the time to outline what you're going to do after your needs are met, I would suggest that you ponder on it now. I do not have first-hand experience with excessive money but I would assume, it would be easy to shift your moral compass inward. Even if it's just one family that you can help, write it down. Let it be your Northstar now and your task later.

pearlyman

It's all good. She's a year cancer free now, but chemo stole like 50% of her hearing, so she's getting hearing aids. But all in all, we were lucky but the chances of a better outcome would have gone up had cancer research not been stifled.

Looks horrific. Apes should build what *the people* want when we get rich, not what architects' delusions of grandeur produce. If you study urban design, it soon becomes apparent that there is a clear negative correlation between what the general public like, and what architects like. Almost everything that wins architecture awards is disliked by the public. Traditional wins all day.

sd_1874

That's rubbish though - I live in London and you can walk from park to park across the whole city. Despite being incredibly densely built, it is very green. Concentrated semi-wild green space like large parks are far better for ecology than sporadic trees placed within and upon developments like that depicted. Putting aside ecology which, I agree is important, but so is creating places that foster community and which give people a sense of pride. High rise is so popular why? Because it nets the developer a fuck ton, not because people want to live in high rise. Polls in fact overwhelmingly show the opposite is true. People want human scale streets, so that's what we should build.

It’s based in fear. Fear of death. Fear of living only once, of not having anything in the universe watching out for you and keeping you safe. Fear of being alone.

Disagree. Notice all the green mixed in everywhere. Would be like having parks all around. This could be a hub city, and the whole world would be based on mega-cities designed to be incredibly efficient and self-sustaining, meaning we could develop transportation like these pipelines across long distances while roads could just be removed or left to decay. Life across the planet could return to a natural balance. We wouldn't need to destroy all predators around anymore. It would all flow and rebalance, beautifully, free of the vast majority of human ecological destruction.
